Chapter 24: To Each His Own Mind
After Luo's mother left, Jing Chuyang's displeasure quickly spread throughout the hall, and the lively crowd dispersed.
Wen Wan wanted to say something, but was pulled away by Tao Yueru, and she had many questions to interrogate Wen Wan.
Although everyone is scattered, the gossip is flying all over the Jing family, and the most talked about is whether Wen Wan really gambles on stones, whether she really gambles tens of millions?
Xu Yuanyuan was very upset by Luo's mother's obvious eyes, and only after the people in the hall dispersed did she say unhappily, "This old woman is really annoying." β
Jing Chuyang glanced at her, "How did Luo Yuhu know about the news of the gentle gambling stone?"
"Me?" Xu Yuanyuan's voice lowered, "I just told Jiajia." β
"You don't know what kind of character Xu Jiajia is, she is aimed at Wen Wan everywhere, and you don't persuade and add fuel to the fire. β
Jing Chuyang's tone was a little heavy, and Xu Yuanyuan instantly sank her face, "Jiajia is measured, and besides, this is not an unsightly thing, I can only say that the people of the Luo family are Taiji." β
Jing Chuyang didn't want to argue with her, so he strode out and instructed Cheng Mufeng, "Notify the Finance Department, settle Luo Yuhu's salary, and ask him to leave." β
"Yes. Cheng Mufeng responded.
Only Xu Yuanyuan was left in the hall with an annoyed figure, and after waiting for a while, she took out her mobile phone to dial the number, and the mobile phone rang a lot before connecting, "Jiajia, where are you?"
"I'm eating out, what's the matter?" Xu Jiajia's voice revealed joy, obviously in a good mood.
"Let me ask you, why did you tell Luo Yuhu about Wen Wan's gambling stone?"
"Luo Yuhu is always pestering me, I can't shake it off like a piece of kraft candy, and I'm annoyed to death. Didn't he take a fancy to my family background, and he was reluctant to be gentle? I fulfilled him, Wen Wan is rich now, and he just went to eat back grass. β
Xu Yuanyuan suppressed the anger in her heart and changed her mobile phone from her left hand to her right hand, "I told you, don't go around talking about Wen Wan's gambling stone for the time being, why are you disobedient?"
"What's wrong?" Xu Jiajia asked nonchalantly, "What's the big deal, isn't it just good luck once or twice." β
"Forget it, forget it, say it all. In the future, you will have a long brain, don't think about it as a play, you fell in love with Luo Yuhu at the beginning, and now you think he is pestering, what do you want to do?" Xu Yuanyuan really can't figure out what this sister thinks all day long, and there is never a qualitative time.
"How could I fall in love with a good-for-nothing man like Luo Yuhu? The man I can fancy must at least catch up with the value of my brother-in-law. β
Xu Yuanyuan asked sensitively, "Who are you with?"
"Duan Xijie. Xu Jiajia replied proudly.
"He's not bad. Xu Yuanyuan put her mind at ease, "Since that's the case, you can get along with him well, don't make trouble willfully, and let me finish it for you when the time comes." β
"My good sister, don't worry, I'm measured. β
Hanging up the phone, Xu Jiajia looked at her seat from a distance, Duan Xijie was waiting there, she was not impatient, she walked into the bathroom with satisfaction and touched up her makeup.
Only a man like Duan Xijie, who is from a wealthy family and wants money, is worthy of her, and a little man like Luo Yuhu should be left to Wen Wan.
After making up his makeup, he walked back to his seat and smiled slightly, "I'm sorry, I'm in a hurry, right?"
Duan Xijie smiled back, "Of course not, it's my honor to have lunch with a beautiful woman, what's the matter if you wait a little longer." β
Xu Jiajia raised her mobile phone reservedly, "My sister called me temporarily and asked me a few words with concern." β
"You sisters have such a good relationship. β
"That's natural, my sister loves me a lot. β
Duan Xijie picked up the red wine on the table, "Then a toast to your sisterhood." β
βcheersγ β
Putting down the wine glass, the two chatted while eating, Duan Xijie was a man who was very good at creating topics, and Xu Jiajia was interested in him again, and he was quickly amused.
Seeing that the atmosphere was good, Duan Xijie asked as if he didn't care, "I heard, you don't like Wen Wan very much?"
Xu Jiajia said contemptuously, "That woman, relying on a face to hook up all day long, I get annoyed when I look at it." β
"Oh, she's such a person, can't you see it?"
"That face looks like a vixen, and she covets my brother-in-law. Hmph, my brother-in-law has a deep affection for my sister, she dares to think in vain, and she doesn't look at herself, why should an orphan fight with my sister, my sister is the queen of jade. β
"I heard that she will also gamble on stones, and every time she gambles, she will rise. β
"Shit luck. Xu Jiajia was impatient, and she hated it when she said gentleness, "Don't talk about her, after eating for a while, where are we going to play?"
Duan Xijie smiled, "It's up to you." β
Lowering his head, he hid the disdain in his eyes, the upper-class celebrities in the imperial capital are both elegant and demure, which is as vulgar as this Xu Jiajia is boring. If it weren't for the family's request for him to have a relationship with Xu Yuanyuan, he would not be willing to deal with this kind of unruly miss.
Although Duan's Qingmiao Group is among the five major consortia, its business has deteriorated in the past two years, and Jing's is eyeing it with a posture of coming from behind. If you don't want to come up with a solution, the only way to wait for Duan is to quit the jadeite industry.
Now the company is at the helm of his eldest brother, and although some measures and reforms have been put in place, the results have not been good. Because in the jadeite industry, the material determines a qiΔ, and without a good gambling stone master, a qiΔ effort is in vain.
This time he came to the magic capital, in addition to exploring Wen Wan's bottom, the eldest brother also explained that he contacted Xu Yuanyuan, and he didn't dare to expect the Jade Queen to become Duan's gambling stone master, so he only asked if it was possible to gamble once or twice for Duan's occasionally.
It's just that Xu Yuanyuan didn't see it, but he was entangled by Xu Jiajia first. I don't want to offend the Xu sisters, so I can only do it perfunctory, but this Xu Jiajia is really annoying. Maybe he should consider letting his eldest brother give up Xu Yuanyuan and set his sights on the triennial gambling king competition to be held next year.
The gambling king didn't dare to think that there might be a new dark horse such as the gambling saint gambling tyrant, which could let them strike first.
**
Wen Wan didn't know how to eat this lunch, not because the previous farce affected her, but because the eyes around her were too hot.
Some were vague, others were staring straight at her, eager to see a flower from her, especially those at the same table.
In addition to Ou Xueli and Tao Yueru, there are also two colleagues from the same design department, the five of them are sitting at a table, at this time they all have the same expression and the same action, absent-mindedly eating a bite of food and looking at her, looking like I have a question but don't know how to speak.
Wen Wan put down her chopsticks and said helplessly, "If there is anything you want to ask, you can ask directly." β
As soon as this sentence came out, not only the eyes of the people at the same table lit up, but Wen Wan felt that the atmosphere around her was hot, and everyone seemed to prick up their ears.
The four people at the same table looked at each other, and finally gave the initiative to Tao Yueru together, and the girl didn't shirk, and asked directly, "Wen Wan, do you really know how to gamble on stones?"
"No, it won't. β
"Ahh "No one thought that Wen Wan would deny it so cleanly and directly.
"I'll just say that the old woman is talking nonsense, it's so hateful. Ou Xueli's mood was the most complicated, and when he heard the gentle answer at this time, he let go of his heart that couldn't hang high.
It's a pity that Wen Wan is not as he wants, although she doesn't want to be so high-profile, but she doesn't want to deceive and lie, "I'm just lucky to bet two pieces of jade." β
"In other words, is it true that you gambled tens of millions of jadeite?" Tao Yueru asked in disbelief.
"Hmm. β
There was a sound of surprise in the hall, tens of millions, for all the people here, it was an astronomical number, and everyone was speechless for a while, not knowing what to say.
Ou Xueli asked with difficulty, "Since you are so rich, what are you going to do back to Jing's family?"
"It's a windfall, but I still like to work on a down-to-earth basis. "There are some things that are not clear, and it is better to answer them as simply and clearly as this.
Ou Xueli opened his mouth, but finally did not speak again, he understood that the distance between him and Wen Wan was getting farther and farther away, and he had no chance at all.
After a long time, Tao Yueru jokingly broke the dull atmosphere, "I really envy you, step into the circle of top richest people." I can't let you go, I must treat you to dinner, and I have to go to the most upscale restaurant. β
"yes, yes. The colleague on the side followed and laughed, "I will borrow money from you in the future, and I can't refuse to cry poor." β
"Good. Wen Wan raised a smile and looked at Tao Yueru gratefully, this friend is good.
"Great, I've also become friends with local tyrants. Tao Yueru received a gentle look and continued to say with a big grin.
Although Tao Yueru tried to laugh at it, the stone had already been thrown, leaving more or less ripples in everyone's hearts.
Everyone said flattering words sincerely on the surface, but in their hearts, they each played Xiao Jiujiu.
